That's why I still think that in this particular case, there is no new
sequence creation (by fluokitten). yes, it does call first/next but those
do not require (significant) new memory or copying. They reuse the memory
of the underlying vectors, if I understood that well. Or there is something
else that you referred to, Tim?

Additional note is that it is the current implementation. If someone points
me to a better way to implement this case, I'll improve it. The API would
stay the same. foldmap, in any case, is more general than this use case,
and also does the folding (which is unneeded here, but very useful in
general).

And, as Francis said, if the priority is speed, I would use Neanderthal
here, or maybe even ClojureCL if side effects are also numerical and there
is enough data that GPU or CPU vectorization can make a difference.
